I have had great success with an external CD-writer and USB.
I am on a recent Red Hat Linux and use the "Gtoaster" program
which is an interface to 'cdrecord'. My device is a BENQ
"Portable CD ReWriter".

I have not yet tried to burn the Aleader ISO image. How do i tell
if my video card will be suitable? Is there a quick way? Should i
just "try and see"?
